Staging: prevent rtl8192su from crashing dev_ioctl in SIOCGIWNAME
(adapted from the rtl8187se patch) ieee80211_wx_get_name() ignores sizeof(wrqu->name) which is IFNAMSIZ (16), and on certain conditions, the concatenated string will be larger than IFNAMSIZ including the terminating zero. length ("802.11" ++ "b" ++ "/g" ++ " linked" ++ "\x00") == 17 This fix uses strl{cpy,cat} in addition to the reduction of the total possible length of the output string by a char. It can be applied to 2.6.30-stable as well.
